🧠 Tips
- Use this from server-side scripts where an alert should be triggered due to an event (e.g., shooting, car theft, panic button).
- The
vehiclefield can be a numeric vehicle entity ID or a custom table with preformatted data. - Use
blip.lengthto auto-remove the blip after a set number of minutes.
